# Creative Commons 4.0 Markdown
On November 25th, 2013, [Creative Commons](http://creativecommons.org/) announced their next generation licenses: [Creative Commons 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/40768). By default, these are available as [HTML](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/) or [plaintext](http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/41127). This project adds [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/)-formatted licenses to that list.
Unfortunately, the output currently varies on different Markdown viewers, in particular when it comes to indentation levels. If you any suggestion on the formatting, feel invited to contribute.

## File extension
There's a plethora of Markdown file extensions, but I have decided to go with `markdown`. Read why:
*"We no longer live in a 8.3 world, so we should be using the most descriptive file extensions. It’s sad that all our operating systems rely on this stupid convention instead of the better creator code or a metadata model, but great that they now support longer file extensions."*
Hilton Lipschitz ([via](http://hiltmon.com/blog/2012/03/07/the-markdown-file-extension/))
*"…the only file extension I would endorse is “.markdown”, for the same reason offered by Hilton Lipschitz"*
